[SOLVED] Mail sent after successful backup even if “on-failure” set

Hi,
I’ve recently noticed emails from my PVE after successful backups even if the backup is launched with the on-failure flag for mail notification, is it a known bug?

As far as I understand on that post they talk about a double mail sent instead of a single mail and the developer says it is due to the migration to the new framework. In my case I have a double mail upon success even if the job has the flag to send mail only upon failure, so it is not exactly the same (a double mail is sent instead of no mails since the job finishes successfully).
